  • Steam AppID of the game: 363890

System Information

I confirm:

  • [x] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Proton Log

steam-363890.log

Symptoms

The software crashes almost immediately when you create/open a project.
Video evidence: https://files.catbox.moe/pmvis5.mkv

Reproduction

Literally just launch the software and create a new project.

Additional note

I have tried the native Linux version, but playtesting doesn't work in that one. When I try to fix that issue by replacing the nwjs version in the files with a newer one, it leads to the software crashing immediately when it opens.

Symptoms

The crash also occurs when displaying notifications.

Reproduction

The notification that appears on first launch shows a white window for a short time and then crashes. After several attempts to launch it, the notification seems to go away and the crashing stops.

Also, if you select "Tools" -> "Options..." -> "Display n. screen" in the menu, a white window shows for a short time and then crashes.

On Windows, the following notification screen will appear:

And of course it crashes when creating/opening a project.

I have tried the native Linux version, but playtesting doesn't work in that one. When I try to fix that issue by replacing the nwjs version in the files with a newer one, it leads to the software crashing immediately when it opens.

By the way, I run the native Linux version in the following way:

cd /PATH/TO/RPG Maker MV

ln -s /PATH/TO/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 

mv nwjs-lnx nwjs-lnx.bak
tar xf nwjs-v0.101.2-linux-x64.tar.gz 
mv nwjs-v0.101.2-linux-x64 nwjs-lnx
cp nwjs-lnx.bak/package.json nwjs-lnx/

mv nwjs-lnx-test nwjs-lnx-test.bak
tar xf nwjs-sdk-v0.101.2-linux-x64.tar.gz 
mv nwjs-sdk-v0.101.2-linux-x64 nwjs-lnx-test
mv nwjs-lnx-test/nw nwjs-lnx-test/Game

Then fill in the value of the "name" key in your project's package.json file.

vi ~/Documents/Games/Project1/package.json

To make the game data the same as Windows, you need to bring the following files from Windows:
